Chemical potential energy being converted to heat energy
A chemical change.
Think about it.
Once you burn the match into ashes, can you turn it back into a match?
Nope.
Gravitational potential energy being converted to heat energy

The total amount of energy remains constant, but it is transformed from chemical energy in the match head to thermal energy (heat) and electromagnetic energy (light) when the match is lit. This is an example of energy conservation in a closed system.
When lighting a match stick, the chemical energy stored in the match head is converted to thermal energy through the process of combustion. This thermal energy produced causes the ignition of the match stick, releasing light and heat energy in the form of a flame.
Yes, lighting a match is a chemical change because the chemicals in the match head undergo a chemical reaction when exposed to heat from friction, resulting in the release of energy in the form of light and heat.
Potential energy, released when the match is struck.
When a match is lit, chemical energy stored in the match head is converted to thermal energy through combustion. The thermal energy then ignites the wood in the match, producing light energy and more thermal energy due to the flame.

The activation energy in the chemical reaction of lighting a match is supplied by the heat generated when the match is struck against the striking surface. This heat is enough to break the chemical bonds in the match head, leading to combustion and the release of energy in the form of light and heat.
Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a chemical reaction to occur. For example, when lighting a match, the activation energy provided by the friction between the match and the striking surface initiates the combustion reaction.
Potential energy, released when the match is struck.
Some disadvantages of lighting a match include potential fire hazards if not carefully extinguished, production of smoke and sulfur odor, and the risk of burns or injuries if mishandled. Additionally, matches can be harmful if ingested or inhaled due to the chemicals used in their composition.
Energy efficient lighting can be purchased in most DIY stores as an alternative to normal lighting fixtures. You can also purchase them online but please check your fitting to ensure it is a match for your light fixture and be aware that energy efficient lighting may be bigger than normal lighting purchases.

Yes, a burning match is an example of chemical energy being released through a chemical reaction. When the match is ignited, the chemical bonds in the matchstick are broken down, releasing stored energy in the form of heat and light.
Burning a match represents a chemical energy transformation. The potential energy stored in the match's chemical bonds is converted into thermal energy, light, and sound energy when it is burned.
